There are not many campus ministries that run an alumni association, and those that do will largely run their alumni association simply for the sake of fundraising for their campus ministry – we want the LutherNole Network to be something more. We want it to be a service to our alumni and our current students, and we want it to be a clear picture of what the Body of Christ is like.

We believe that it is important to reflect this concept of “the Body of Christ” that shows up in Paul’s letters like I Corinthians and Colossians. The Body of Christ is the collection of believers who are gathered together by the Holy Spirit and hold faith in Jesus Christ in common. This connection is something that we are purposeful about trying to develop and sustain for students at FSU, but is something that often times is difficult for FSU students to find when they graduate.

It is also important for our students, as they are going through their time here in Tallahassee, to realize that they are “surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses” of people who have gone before them. It is important for them to know that others have gone before them and struggled with the same things that they have: good grades and bad grades, breakups and new relationships, losses and wins at Doak-Campbell, and much much more. It is important also that they realize that our graduates go all over the world and live our their vocations in a way that is pleasing to God.

We really hope that if you haven’t become a part of the LutherNole Network, that you will soon. Please fill out the “I’m A LutherNole” form to be a part of the LutherNole Network!
